Geonkhali, India

The first month of the pre-monsoon summer, March, is still a tropical month in Geonkhali, India, with temperature in the range of an average low of 23.4°C (74.1°F) and an average high of 34.8°C (94.6°F).

Temperature

The onset of March marks a slight increase in the average high-temperature, moving from a tropical 31.3°C (88.3°F) in February to a still hot 34.8°C (94.6°F). Geonkhali's average low-temperature is measured at a warm 23.4°C (74.1°F) during March.

Heat index

For March, the heat index is evaluated at a blistering 43°C (109.4°F). Remain alert: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are predicted. Extended effort can lead to heatstroke.
The metrics for the heat index are tailored for both shady environments and light winds. Exposing to direct sunshine may enhance heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', provides an understanding of perceived warmth by combining temperature and relative humidity. The impact of weather is individual, with diverse individuals experiencing it differently due to variations in body mass, height, and activity levels. Direct sun exposure is noteworthy in its ability to escalate the felt temperature, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
When it comes to cooling down, the human body's primary method is through perspiration, making use of sweat evaporation to eliminate excess heat. Augmented relative humidity impedes typical body cooling mechanisms by lowering the evaporation rate, resulting in decreased body cooling and an amplified perception of heat. When body temperature rises due to an imbalance in heat gain, there's a potential for dehydration and overheating.

Humidity

The average relative humidity in March is 56%.

Take precautions and adopt sun safety practices. Protection against sunburn is obliged. Make an effort to avoid direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation, and note that objects like parasols or canopies might not offer full sun protection. A hat with a broad brim is indispensable, filtering out up to half of UV rays.
